Birdemic:
Shock and Terror Auteur: James Nguyen |
Bonnie Steiger as horrified and memorable featured extra. |
James Nguyen & me, Bonnie Steiger |
I, Bonnie Steiger, have a very informative page regarding the production, Birdemic: Shock and Terror. You can go to: Birdemic Warning on Wetpaint.com to get a bit more back story on the film. Finished in 2008, Severin Films picked up distribution for Birdemic: Shock and Horror in 2010. On the linked opening page to the Severin site, displayed are rotating photos of their film titles. I'm in the center of the one for Birdemic. Only having been an extra for one day, what an unexpected and very cool surprise. |
There are several sites that have discussed this film and filmmaker. This is the kind of controversy that makes for an intriguing and fascinating documentary, and Severin Films is producing such a film about Nguyen himself.
